Temple of the Dark Moon

silkroad, not exactly that one in China that link to god knows where..u tell me. i donno much about Chinese History so cant blame me~ hehehe. www.silkroadonline.net is just an online game i’ve picked up when i was stuck here… i kinda played that game for like 3 weeks i think… kinda stupid actually online games… even i who played it cannot see the point of it. i just literally walk around whacking creatures over and over and over again with nothing to gain except lvling up and it qualifies me to wear new ‘garments’ that are more… err …gaya compared to my older levels and wield more powerful weapons to inflict higher damage…which basically does not really matter for u see, the more powerful u are, the better weapons of course u can use, but then again, the monsters life increase by that much of the amount…so u actually spend the same amount of slashes to kill a high level monster compared to when u are wielding low level weapons to kill low level monsters. i wouldnt bother playing an online game if i got anything better to do like Civilization 4 or Fable or Black and White 2 but then my comp is actually ‘obsolete’ to even run these high end games that i have been dying to play since last sem… so anyways, having absolutely nothing to do after office hours, i succumbed myself to online game silk road, slashing and whacking with my zombie girl character (she’s a typical chinese zombie with a talisman sticking to her forehead and eyes closed). anyways…having pain stakingly lvlling up this baby up to lvl 36 (by now, the experience points needed to advance her lvl is 2.9 million and all im getting from one pathetic monster is 900… so u can imagine how many of those same bloody monsters i have to kill to even get to level 37), some how along they way of upgrading my weapon i manage to destroy it into bits… well not exactly…more precisely, i reduced its ‘power’. so for me after spending a million bucks trying to upgrade it, it remained as it is.. junk. that was the line… i’m just too lazy to bother even to go on slashing monsters again and again after being so ‘unfairly’ (these games have an upgrading system that is so wonderful..50% success and 50% failure in which ur item maybe destroyed) treated, further more, with a junk of an item. i just quited that programme and straigh away deleted it from my comp. ah, there it goes… no more mindless slashing of monsters.

if truth be told, i have played a number of these games…always at the recommendatioin of my brother and it always happens during sem breaks… the 2 months break we have. and the funniest thing is, every god damned online game is almost similar…all have the same kind of choice… warrior, mage, ranger, priest being the exception is silkroad which is the one of the reason i decided to try it.  and everytime i play any online game, i will always choose to be a mage…what to do..i just love magic. and being a typical gamer… i knew what kind of abilities these mages of all the online games have…they have 3 elements to choose from fire, ice, and lightning. always the same…ice will slow the enemy, fire will burn the enemy..lightning donno what it does cause i never really used it. ice will always have frost armour…so typical. anyways… i will always play a character until its level 40++ then get fed up of it..cause i see the same spells and animation again and again for so long..hahahha. when i look back at all that… i have always wondered why in the world does an online game have so many players? because even until now, i cannot see the point. i played silkroad cause i have nothing to do here. i played online games back home cause i cant do anything else…cept painting..but that one only one of the hols..then donno why after that din continue…i think because go india and bangkok then now IT dy thats why.

and so by abandoning silkroad, i have wow~! a whole day of free time… no malls to go to, well, theres the sea… but i don feel like swimming in a horribly murky sea… anyways… no pool to go (i don go in klang cause its horribly dirty. can go shah alam one but donno road…and it’s an indoor pool which means the water is super cold in the morning. went there few times but always freeze to death), no story books to read..i doubt the amount of story books can last me another 5 more months… cant paint (tot i would be very busy when working..yeah right)… so now, without the online game… im stuck with donno what to do. i think i will ask around if anyone knows kerteh got sell oil painting stuff… at least then i can do something about the time i have in my god damned hands. i could write poems again…but then i have wrote so much in that 3 days, i donno what to write summore… have to leave for sometime for more observatioins and ideas to pop up and then only can write again…hehehehe.

aih, i totally regret never upgrade my comp before i come here~~~~ god its stifling hot in my room every afternoon~!
